On February 20, 2021, the probe did its fourth close flyby of Venus, getting a gravity assist from the planet to continue its study of the sun. Four days after the flyby, NASA shared a gorgeous image of Venus from an exciting and mysterious flyby that took place in July 2020.
As NASA notes in its announcement, the Parker Solar Probe is focused on studying our star, but Venus is playing an important role in its lifecycle. Over the course of its seven-year mission, Parker will make seven flybys, taking advantage of Venus gravity to guide the probe s orbit. Though it s focused on the sun and studying solar winds, Parker s Wide-field Imager (WISPR) is capturing impressive images of the inner solar system along the way.
